It's Main Flaw Is That It Just Doesn't Make Sense

Rating: 3/10 (27 February 2004)

I rented this movie with high hopes. I had heard it was a pretty god horror/thriller. Watching it, though, I just couldn't ignore the numerous logical lapses that occur. It is a work of fiction, true, but the main characters do a lot of things in this movie that people in the Real World simply would not do. Their choices and decisions seem to serve only to put them in a position for the next shocking scene. Speaking of which, once I started thinking about the virus that infects the population of the UK, I kept wondering "Why aren't these blood-spewing hyperactive zombies attacking each other? Wouldn't they have died of dehydration and blood loss long before starvation became a problem? And why do they all look like extras from a Prodigy video?"
There are a few scenes that work, but overall I would not recommend this film.
